▼ In its response to traumatic forms of oppression associated with race, gender, and sexuality, the literature of Langston Hughes, H.D., Djuna Barnes, and Zora Neale Hurston-the writers of this study-illuminates how survival narratives are dynamically linked to the present moment. Their work places emphasis upon readerly experience through a set of aesthetic strategies that compel readers to inhabit the present. Take, for instance, Hughes's appeal to jazz music in his poetry; he uses improvisational language and call-and-response techniques that prompt a reader's attention and response to the complex scenes of racial trauma at play in his poems. Just as a jazz musician is asked to improvise or invent in the moment of play, Hughes's reader is called upon as a creative witness whose own enlivened reading grants his poetry survival. Through critical reading of Hughes and the other writers of this study, I offer new ways of thinking about the temporal quality of readerly experience and its transformative power to bear witness to survival. If as traditional critiques of modernism suggest, "time" is war-weary and ruptured in high-modernist classics such as James Joyce's Ulysses and Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, then in the literature of the periphery, broken time is reimagined as a source for creativity and transformation. By identifying the importance of alternative temporal imaginaries for marginalized populations, this dissertation contributes to new studies of time such as Elizabeth Freeman and José Muñoz's work on queer time, Alondra Nelson's study of "Afrofuturism," and Dana Luciano's work on sacred time. Furthermore, this project offers a critical intervention into trauma studies vis à vis the work of Cathy Caruth by arguing that the belated and repetitious impact of trauma is an imperative of survival aligned with present moment time. When we are present in our reading of stories about trauma, we participate as active witnesses to their survival; we partake-as the title of my study announces-in the "invention of survival" by transforming words on a page into living testimony.

▼ Faithful Readings outlines a revisionist history of the discourse and practice of Anglo-American literary criticism between 1880 and 1950. This dissertation contests the secularization narratives that structure many received histories of the discipline, narratives in which habits of critical interpretation and reflection inevitably supersede or simply survive a credulous, pre-modern religion that had become increasingly untenable through the nineteenth century. The project presents a genealogy of this enduring concept of religion as naïve and literal belief, arguing that the concept was produced as a polemical strategy in a theological contest: it was first promoted not by disinterested secular critics but by the under-remarked nineteenth-century theological movement known as Protestant modernism as a dismissive depiction of its theological rivals. For modernists, faith was a self-consciously interpretive relation to the Christian tradition as a complex of historically and culturally mediated forms whose ultimate object was an ineffable, infinite reality: defined against propositional belief, true religion was a way of reading this tradition critically. This dissertation argues that the habits of literary criticism developed in this period were recursively entangled with the powerful and problematic hermeneutics that defined this one contemporary Protestant theology. In chapters dedicated to the reading practices of such formative figures as Matthew Arnold, John Crowe Ransom, Cleanth Brooks, and T.S. Eliot, the project elucidates the political, epistemological, and institutional pressures that led both biblical and literary critics to develop new methods to legitimize their work as specialized, modern disciplines and also to remain faithful to their cherished texts as authorities that exceeded the knowledge such specialized methods could produce. Thinking beyond the purported opposition between the critical and the religious, the project defamiliarizes tensions within enduring habits of literary criticism and invites serious reflection on the forms of discipline that may be required should critics decide to change their habits.

▼ In this study I focus on a number of collections of short fiction by the South African writers Joël Matlou, Sindiwe Magona, Zoë Wicomb and Ivan Vladislavić, all of which evince certain of the characteristics of short story cycles or sequences. In other words, they display what Forrest L. Ingram describes as “a double tendency of asserting the individuality of [their] components on the one hand and of highlighting, on the other, the bonds of unity which make the many into a single whole”. The cycle form, thus defined, is characterised by a paradoxical yet productive and frequently unresolved tension between “the individuality of each of the stories and the necessities of the larger unit”, between “the one and the many”, and between cohesion and fragmentation. It is this “dynamic structure of connection and disconnection” which singularly equips the genre to represent the interrelationship of singular and collective identities, or the “coherent multiplicity of community”. Ingram, for example, asserts that “Numerous and varied connective strands draw the co-protagonists of any story cycle into a single community. … However this community may be achieved, it usually can be said to constitute the central character of a cycle”. Not unsurprisingly, then, in its dominant manifestations over much of the twentieth century the short story cycle demonstrated a marked inclination towards regionalism and the depiction of localised enclaves, and this tendency towards “place-based short story cycles” in which topographical unity is a conspicuous feature was as pronounced in South Africa as elsewhere. However, the specific collections which are my concern here increasingly employ innovative and self-reflexive narrative strategies that unsettle generic expectations and interrogate the notions of regionalism and community conventionally associated with the short story cycle. My investigation seeks to explain this shift in emphasis, and its particular significance within the South African context.

▼ This dissertation is comprised of a collection of poems preceded by a critical preface. The preface reconsiders the value of discontinuous poetic forms and advocates a return to lyric as an antidote to the toxic aspects of what Tony Hoagland terms “the skittery poem of our moment.” I consider poems by Wendy Xu, Kevin Prufer, Sharon Olds, and Stephen Dunn in depth to facilitate a discussion about the value of a more centrist position between the poles of supreme discontinuity and totalizing continuity. Though poets working in discontinuous forms are rightly skeptical of the hierarchies that govern narrative and linear forms, as Czesław Miłosz notes in The Witness of Poetry, “a poet discovers a secret, namely that he can be faithful to real things only by arranging them hierarchically.” In my own poems, I make use of the hierarchies of ordered perception in lyric and narrative forms to faithfully illuminate the collapsed structures of my own family history in the shadow of Detroit. I practice the principles I advocate in the preface, using a continuous form to address fractured realities in a busy, disordered age when poets often seek forms as fragmented as their perceptions. These poems are distinctly American, but because there is no true royalty in America, our great cultural and economic institutions—television, music, film, magazines, and big business—take the place of the castle (the book’s emblem) while Michael Jackson ultimately rises as the commanding dead king whose passing prompts contemplation of the viability of popular culture, family, history, and geography. The fallen structures that litter the work are many: the twin towers, chess rooks, bounce castles, nuclear families, the auto industry. However, the sole structure cohering the whole is that of a lyric voice whose authority is derived through lived experience and presented in rich, continuous poetic forms. Advisors/Committee Members: Bond, Bruce, 1954-, Holdeman, David, Marks, Corey, 1970-, Fairchild, B. H..

This dissertation explores the discursive transformations in five novels written after 1969 by Hispanic Caribbean writers. Through a focus on language, on the relationship between history and fiction, on collective memory, and on the body, the author aims to show that these twentieth century novels straddle both modernism and postmodernism, exploring new ways of expressing their concerns while remaining rooted in modernist traditions. The first chapter examines the subversive use of proverbs, gossip, and superstition as a means of challenging the phallocentric thinking that relegates women to a position of alterity in La casa de la laguna by Puerto Rican writer Rosario Ferré and in En el tiempo de las mariposas by Dominican writer Julia Álvarez. The second chapter analyzes how Canción de Rachel, a testimonial novel written by Cuban writer Miguel Barnet, employs strategies generally associated with postmodernism in order to reevaluate the past and break free from its racist and dogmatic legacy. Rachel’s testimonial voice shares the narrative space with a plethora of other voices including the author/ethnographer’s. Their versions of the past are individual, fragmented and incomplete. The third chapter focuses on the fictionalization of history in La llegada by Puerto Rican writer José Luis González. The author analyzes the dialogue that the novel undertakes with the visual intertext, images taken from Our Islands and Their People as Seen with Camera and Pencil (1899), in order to show that historical writing as well as the photographic image are neither objective nor complete truths. In the final chapter, the author examines the strategies of transgression that are articulated from the lens of the sick body. The playful use of parody, intertextuality, ambiguity, and dispersion that distinguish Severo Sarduy’s previous works are still detectable in his last novel although they are intermixed with a desperate search for order and meaning. Sarduy opens a new discursive space for the abject body, in this case, the ill and dying body, and calls for a reinterpretation of illness that does not treat body and person as separate entities.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study investigates the question whether Cicero published to serve his own glory, or whether he published to serve the commonwealth, in other words, to whose benefit (cui bono) was publication? After exploring the context in which Cicero published, the study considers eight reasons for publication, namely publication to add to his personal glory, to elicit literary favours, to promote his own works, to reply to his critics, to promote a political agenda, to educate society, to promote Latin literature, and to pay compliments. While the study considered all surviving works, I argue that the conference at Luca in 56 BCE and Cicero’s subsequent retirement from politics constituted a watershed, after which his publication habits changed. Therefore, the study focused primarily on the works concerning oratory and philosophy. Important additional information concerning the circumstances of composition and publication were sought in the letters. After considering these various reasons for publication, I come to the conclusion that Cicero's decision to publish was motivated by his quest for personal glory, mostly as a form of rehabilitation after his exile from 58 to 57 BCE. Publishing to serve the commonwealth in the end seems only of secondary concern.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek Cicero se redes vir publikasie en probeer vasstel of hy publiseer tot voordeel van sy eie roem of tot voordeel van die gemeenskap, met ander woorde, tot wie se voordeel (cui bono) was publikasie? Na ’n oorsig van die omstandighede en omgewing waarin Cicero publiseer, identifiseer hierdie studie agt redes vir publikasie, naamlik publikasie ter uitbreiding van sy eie roem, tot ontlokking van literêre gunste, ter bevordering van sy eie werke, tot weerlegging van kritici, tot bevordering van politieke doelwitte, tot opvoeding van die gemeenskap, tot bevordering van die Latynse letterkunde, en om te komplimenteer. Alhoewel hierdie studie alle oorblywende werke oorweeg het, argumenteer die studie dat die konferensie by Luca in 56 v.C. en Cicero se daaropvolgende politieke aftrede ’n merkwaardige verandering in sy publikasiegewoontes tot gevolg gehad het. Hierdie studie fokus dus hoofsaaklik op Cicero se retoriese en filosofiese werke. Die briewe is ook ondersoek om belangrike addisionele informasie aan die lig te bring aangaande die omstandighede waaronder hy geskryf en gepubliseer het. Na oorweging van verskeie redes vir publikasie, kom die studie tot die gevolgtrekking dat Cicero se besluit om te publiseer gemotiveer is deur sy behoefte aan persoonlike roem, meestal om die eer wat geskend was tydens sy ballingskap van 58 tot 57 v.C te herstel. Publikasie tot voordeel van die gemeenskap blyk telkens ’n sekondêre motivering te wees.

▼ The high Christology and unique pneumatology of John’s gospel has often eclipsed the apostle’s teaching on the relationship of the believer to Christ and the Father through the Spirit in Johannine studies. This dissertation seeks to fill this gap by providing an exegetically-focused treatment of sonship in the Johannine corpus that gives special attention to the role of the Spirit in bringing God’s children to participate in the life of the Son and his relationship with the Father. The central thesis is that John, in a manner distinct from Paul’s metaphor of adoption, presents the sonship of believer’s as the result of the Spirit’s work of regeneration out of which flows faith and participation in Christ’s life as Son. At the heart of this study are eight Johannine passages––John 1:12–13; 3:3–8; 14:16–23; 20:17; 1 John 3:1–3, 24; 4:13; and Revelation 21:7––that provide the exegetical lens to view the Spirit of Sonship in John. Although the exegesis of chapter 3 forms the foundation of study, chapter 2 considers the eight Johannine passages through the eyes of John Calvin and John Gill––both instrumental in advancing the theology of the Spirit and providing an exegetical foundation for their theology. Chapter 4 identifies three primary themes––obedience, love, and life––drawn from the eight passages and briefly synthesizes and correlates these themes with other key texts in the Johannine corpus. A brief survey of literature on sonship is reviewed in chapter 1, setting the landscape to which this dissertation seeks to contribute. By focusing on the role of the Spirit the persons of the Father and Son are not diminished, but brought into clearer focus, which is consistent with the Spirit’s ministry to glorify the Son (John 16:14). The Father is the divine initiator, the Son the divine accomplisher, and the Spirit the divine mediator of every spiritual reality that is in and through the Son to the believer. At the center of the Spirit of sonship is the glory of the Son who reveals the glory of the Father in the hearts of the children. Advisors/Committee Members: Haykin, Michael A.G (advisor).

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: With her debut collection Noudat slapende honde in 2008, Ronelda S. Kamfer became the first woman of colour to publish a complete volume of poetry through a mainstream Afrikaans publishing house. Despite the historical significance of this publication, copious media interest and multiple nominations for literary prizes, the fact remains that few academic analyses of Kamfer’s poetry have been undertaken. This study is based on the theorising of black American feminist and philosopher, bell hooks, whose work is, firstly, exposited and secondly, adapted for the interpretation of Kamfer’s poetry in the South African context. Emphasis is placed on the constructs of race and language, as discussed, among others, by hooks in her collection of essays Yearning: Race, gender and cultural politics (1990). Due to the intertwined nature of these concepts with the general discourse surrounding black feminist issues, other terms like gender and class are also employed where applicable. Research elucidating the South African and Afrikaans contexts is brought to light to span the divide between the American and South African contexts. Poems from all three volumes of Kamfer’s poetry – Noudat slapende honde (2008), grond/Santekraam (2011) and Hammie (2016) – are discussed. In investigating Kamfer’s poems, hooks’s theories prove to be a rewarding read and provide a framework for inter-preting Kamfer’s poems. Concerning race, a multiplicitous view on coloured identity and a critical engagement with whiteness are emphasised, with the goal of forming a radical coloured (female) subjectivity. The poet-speaker’s use of counter language and her implementation of Afrikaans forms an oppositional perspective, which is reminiscent of hooks. Various similarities between hooks and Kamfer are identitfied, most notably the use of accessible language, a critical perspective, and an interest in pop culture. One finally reaches the conclusion that this theoretical framework can be applied successfully not only to Kamfer’s work, but also to other coloured Afrikaans poets. It could also be adapted for interpretation in other literary fields such as prose, and more accessible forms such as slam poetry or rap.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ronelda S. Kamfer word met die verskyning van haar debuutbundel, Noudat slapende honde, in 2008 die eerste bruin/swart vroueskrywer wat ’n volledige Afrikaanse digbundel by ’n hoofstroomuitgewery publiseer. Ten spyte van die historiese belang van hierdie ge-beurtenis, die groot belangstelling in die media en verskeie nominasies vir literêre pryse, is daar nog betreklik min akademiese studies oor Kamfer se werk onderneem. In hierdie tesis word die teoretisering van die swart Amerikaanse feminis en filosoof bell hooks eerstens uiteengesit en tweedens aangepas vir die interpretasie van Kamfer se ge-digte in die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks. Die klem val op die konstrukte ras en taal, soos deur hooks onder meer bespreek in die bundel essays getiteld Yearning: Race, gender and cultural politics (1990). Weens die…

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Certain Psalms, known as Imprecatory Psalms, cause problems for both academic and devotional readers. They contain curses and prayers asking for vengeance, judgment, and vindication. These Psalms are part of the Bible, creating the question if Christians today can read and study them. Through the years various attempts, ranging from ignoring, censoring, and defending these curses, have been attempted. However, no single methodology can effectively alleviate the problems and questions caused by the Imprecatory Psalms. This thesis looks at the Aramaic cry, Μαράνα θά, in 1 Corinthians 16 as a possible key to help understand the Imprecatory Psalms. Therefore three Imprecatory Psalms are studied to determine the motivations and context behind the vengeful prayers. Psalms 7, 35, and 59 were studied within their cultural and canonical settings according to the Three Dimensional Reading Methodology. The focus is on the inter-, intra-, and extra-textual aspects. It was determined that the psalmists did not curse for vengeful or personal reasons. The curses were expressed in a time of dire need when enemies were out to destroy the psalmists. Within the covenantal relationship between God and the psalmist, the only option left for the psalmist was to call on God to come to their aid: judging the enemies and vindicating the righteous. Studying the curse within the context of the Ancient Near East it became evident that the curse was commonly used in both Old and New Testament times. In the case of Biblical curses it also becomes clear that executing the curse or not was the sole prerogative of God; the psalmist could not enact vengeance himself. Curses are not only found in the Psalms, but also other books in the Old and New Testament. Μαράνα θά is found next to a curse in the New Testament. Although considered by some as separate, reading ἀνάθεμα Μαράνα θά as a unit echoes a similar essence than the imprecatory prayers: the desire that God will come and act. In the Psalms the desire is that God would come and judge the enemies and vindicate the righteous. Μαράνα θά should be read as an imperative, calling on the Lord to come and act. In the New Testament Μαράνα θά has the παρουσία in mind. Analogous to the Imprecatory Psalms, the παρουσία focuses on judgment of the enemies of God and the vindication of his people. Μαράνα θά can become a prayer that offer an analogy between the hopes and desires of the psalmists and the hopes and desires of those calling on the Lord to return.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Sommige Psalms, bekend as Vloekpsalms, veroorsaak probleme vir beide akademiese en gewone lesers. Dit bevat vloeke en gebede van wraak, oordeel en vergelding. Hierdie Psalms vorm deel van die Bybel en skep die vraag of Christene hierdie gebede mag lees en bestudeer. Deur die jare is verskeie pogings, wat wissel vanaf ignorering, sensuur en verdediging van die vloeke, voorgestel. Daar is egter nie een metode wat die probleme en vraagstukke wat deur die Vloekpsalms veroorsaak word voldoende kan antwoord nie. Hierdie…

▼ The objective of this study is to affirm the presence of the intentional consciousness / stance in texts which purport to depict reality or real events. Intentionality, in the context of this thesis, is not conceived as a pre-existing thought or idea, which precedes the text, but as something, which inheres in the text and is produced in it. The Cartesian split between consciousness and being which the former conception enacts is here elided and authorial intention is read and produced in the process of writing itself. This distinction is significant because the main argument of this thesis is that authorial intention in texts that purport to depict real events and intervene in a particular socio-historical process for mobilizational purposes, leads to the production of a certain kind of text which deploys specific narrative strategies that consolidate its reading and rendering of events and re-inforce narrative closures. These intentionally motivated closures are embedded in narrative strategies, which are seen as both necessary and imperative for the consolidation and legitimation of the message and to foreclose other readings. Authorially motivated closures are predominant in classic realist texts in which as Roger Webster (1990:70) argues "there is a clear hierarchy of discourses controlled by a privileged central voice or narrator". This narrative voice or, to quote MacCabe, this "authorial and authoritarian 'metalanguage' judges and controls all other discourses in the text". And in classic realist texts in which the author does not seek to mask his presence by using other narrators and overtly seeks to move his audience in a specified direction, these closures become even more evident within the texture of the text. Texts of this nature are seen as means of achieving particular ends rather than as autonomous, independent units existing in a self-referential world of significance. Much of contemporary critical theory has unfortunately tried to efface the author from the text and/ or tried to marginalize the role of the author in the text. This thesis, however, seeks to re-inscribe the agency of the author in his / her intentional stance with regard to the text, more specifically in texts which depict real events and seek to impact upon the real world and the target audience. This thesis shows how this agency is enacted within the world of the text. Very briefly, this agency, I argue, is reproduced in narrative strategies which revolve around the twin poles of authority and legitimation; and these strategies operate at two levels within the text and these are the levels of the real events depicted in the narrative and then the prevailing discursive paradigms of the times. A narrative dialectic is thus erected between these two levels in the texts and this is mediated at every point by the active presence of the authorial engagement. The first chapter, which is largely introductory, serves as the theoretical clearing ground for the thesis. In it, I argue the case for intentionality by reviewing various… Advisors/Committee Members: Garuba, H.O (advisor).

▼ The early eighties saw Italy become a landing bay for thousands of immigrants who abandoned their homes in search of a better life. Almost immediately, Italian academics highlighted the importance of this new phenomenon but tended to emphasize the superficial aspects that all immigrants in Italy had in common, aspects linked to the way of life of the newly arrived immigrants which in essence was very different from the Italian way of life. Soon however, the need for the migrants to be heard grew and La Letteratura della Migrazione was born. This world-wide literary phenomenon manifested itself at a much later date in Italy, compared to other European countries, largely due to the fact that a cultural tradition imposed by colonialism did not exist. Paradoxically, it is this very lack of colonial history that has given Italian migrant writers the freedom to express themselves in a style of literature that is original and primarily spontaneous and in many ways different to other Italian writers. It is against this background that Kossi Komla-Ebri writes in Italian, the language he embraces by choice. Although this dissertation focuses initially on the first African migrant writers, it is primarily a detailed study of the characters in Komla-Ebri’s novel Neyla (2002) and in his collection of short stories All’incrocio dei sentieri (2003). In the broader sense, it explores those themes in his narrative common to migrant literature in general, such as the journey, alienation, otherness, loss of identity and the return home. While it is true that these themes represent universal archetypes present in literature since Homer, the study looks predominantly at how Komla-Ebri’s thematic exposition differs from other works in the same general categories. The study shows how in exploring and expounding the constant divide between two continents and two cultures, Komla-Ebri succeeds with great compassion and humanity not only to bridge the gap between diverse identities, but also to break away from the African/migrant writer category.

▼ This study investigates the use of satire in Ferdinand Oyono's novels: Houseboy and The Old Man and the Medal. It is enhanced through the author's social vision, themes and character portrayal. The objective of the research is to appreciate the author's use of satirical techniques to depict the plight of characters in a colonial situation. Both the oppressor and the oppressed are active participants in this dualism. Ferdinand Oyono emerges as a socially responsive writer who responds to the colonial discourse which has made Cameroon to be referred to as a post colonial state just like most third world countries. His concern is over a society ridiculed by the encounter between Africa and Europe, which spelt disaster for the Africans. The encounter necessitated the circumstances under which the western world crossed the African historical path. The hypothesis of the study will therefore, be to investigate colonialism as an intrusion, a dual activity in which both the colonizer and the colonized were willing participants. This resulted in a change in the realities of African life, and hence the need for decolonization. Since Oyono's fiction is concerned with anti-colonial discourse, postcolonial theory will be relevant in our interrogation of colonialism in Cameroon. Colonial and postcolonial eras have had a strong impact on the African experience which has not only been felt physically, but also psychologically. Alongside postcolonial theoretical approach, the study wishes to use stylistics literary criticism. This theoretical approach will be useful in investigating Oyono' s use of satire as a literary technique. He uses satire to create consciousness in the Africans and thereby awaken the French towards the realization that an African will always be an African and no amount of assimilation will succeed in absorbing him into the world of the other: the world of the French. It is worth noting that Oyono has written three novels: Houseboy, The Old Man and The Medal and Road to Euro. They are all satirical. However, Houseboy and The Old Man and The Medal have something in common in that they are both set in Africa against the background of the French assimilation policy whose purpose was to integrate the Africans into the French World. The policy, nevertheless, proved futile. The novels also share the same style of expression: satire. However, it is worth noting that in Houseboy, Oyono employs laughter, the tragic laughter of satire, more articulately than in The Old Man and The Medal where laughter is a little bit camouflaged. The laughter in The Old Man and The Medal is a bit subtle. In spite of the manner in which satire has been employed in both novels, Oyono has used satire with exemplary success. It is in this regard therefore, that the project seeks to identify and evaluate the satirical techniques used in the novels to create foibles for both the oppressor and the oppressed. Oyono uses satire to give us an insight into the complexities and relationships as well as giving depth to the colonial…

This study argues that the most important purpose of υἱοθεσία within the Pauline correspondence was to help create, define, and ground the identity of believers in Jesus Christ in the early church, especially in the face of difficult and disconcerting questions regarding the role of ethnicity within the eschatological people of God. To this end, this study combines the modern tool of Social Identity Theory with detailed exegesis of key texts in Galatians in order to demonstrate that υἱοθεσία is an eschatological event which creates a new identity for believers in Jesus Christ and functions as a resolution to difficult questions regarding ethnicity and membership in the people of God. Chapter 1 provides a summary and critique of the most important recent studies of υἱοθεσία, followed by a brief outline of the contours of Social Identity Theory. Chapter 2 gives an introduction to the historical and theological background to Paul's letter to the Galatians. This includes an exegetical overview of Galatians 2:15-21, along with an introductory summary of how Social Identity Theory relates to Paul's rhetorical strategy in the epistle. Chapters 3, 4, and 5 supply detailed exegesis of key passages within Galatians, with specific reference to how they contribute to the theme of adoption within the epistle, and noting how Paul follows patterns recognizable to the categories of modern sociology. Chapter 6 addresses the four other occurrences of υἱοθεσία within the Pauline corpus (Rom 8:15, 23; 9:4; Eph 1:5). It offers a brief analysis of the background and purpose of these epistles, and supply an introductory foray into the adoption pericopae. Finally, it will give a synopsis of primary conclusions from each of the texts, and attempt a synthesis of these results. Advisors/Committee Members: Seifrid, Mark A (advisor).
